1. The family or household member or law
enforcement officer who filed the verified application pursuant to NRS 33.560 or the adverse party may request
in writing to appear and move for the dissolution of an emergency or extended
order. Upon a finding by clear and convincing evidence that the adverse party
no longer poses a risk of causing a self-inflicted injury or a personal injury
to another person by possessing, controlling, purchasing or otherwise acquiring
any firearm, the court shall dissolve the order. If all parties stipulate to
dissolve the order, the court shall dissolve the order upon a finding of good
cause.
2. Upon the expiration or dissolution of
an emergency or extended order, the court shall:
(a) Order the return of any firearm surrendered
by the adverse party;
(b) Provide a copy of the order to:
(1) The adverse party; and
(2) The law enforcement agency holding any
such surrendered firearm; and
(c) Cause, on a form prescribed by the Department
of Public Safety, a record of the expiration or dissolution of the order to be
transmitted to the Central Repository for Nevada Records of Criminal History to
ensure that information concerning the adverse party is removed from the
Central Repository.
3. Not less than 3 months before the
expiration of an extended order and upon petition by a family or household
member or law enforcement officer, the court may, after notice and a hearing,
renew an extended order upon a finding by clear and convincing evidence. Such an
order expires within a period, not to exceed 1 year, as the court fixes.
